Background: Three-quarters of all mental health problems begins between 10-24 years. When not treated, adolescents and young people with mental health problems are at high risk of abuse, suicide, and substance use, which have long-term consequences that negatively impact physical, and economic productivity. The study aimed to determine the prevalence of mental health problems among secondary schoo

Denna avhandling undersöker hur svenska män som betalar för sex ger mening åt sina handlingar och förhåller sig till ett moraliskt sammanhang präglat av kriminalisering, stigma och offentlig fördömelse. Med utgångspunkt i antropologiska perspektiv på moral, stigma och hemlighållande förstås männens berättelser som uttryck för moraliskt arbete: det pågående, situationsbundna arbete genom vilket indThis dissertation examines how Swedish men who pay for sex make sense of their actions and orient themselves within a moral landscape marked by criminalization, stigma, and public condemnation. Drawing on anthropological approaches to morality, stigma, and secrecy, the study conceptualizes the men’s accounts as forms of “moral work”: the ongoing, situated labor through which individuals seek to su

This bachelor’s thesis examines five selected works of art by the Swedish painter Leander Engström (1886–1927), created between 1915 and 1919. This period is generally regarded as the most significant phase of Engström’s artistic production and was shaped by his time spent in Abisko, as well as by a romantic relationship that coincided with an especially vivid and expressive phase in his work. Eng

This thesis examines Black Archives Sweden (BAS), a contemporary archive centering the experiences of afroswedes and Black people. The archive raises the question of whose story is worthy of telling, and through whose eyes it is being documented. To approach the material, the thesis applies discourse analysis in combination with postcolonial perspectives and theories as well as institutional art t

This paper explores how evolutionary epistemology can offer insights into the discussion of naturalization of epistemology and normativity. Living organisms have an inherent disposition to continue living – i.e., staying in homeostasis – which they accomplish through an anticipatory regulatory process called allostasis. Organisms only survive under certain conditions, and so their actions and pred

Microhabitat choice has been proposed as a mechanism contributing to the maintenance of colour polymorphism in marine gastropods, based on observed associations between shell colour and microhabitat in certain species (e.g. Littorina saxatilis). To examine this hypothesis, different colour morphs of L. saxatilis were studied following a mark-recapture experimental design to assess whether this spe

Context. Stellar radial migration has predominantly been examined in isolated disc galaxies where non-axisymmetric structures drive the process. By contrast, while tidal interactions are known for having an influence, their contribution remains comparatively under explored. The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), the nearest disc galaxy to the Milky Way (MW) and currently interacting with the Small Mage

A cell’s ability to sense and respond to the mechanical properties of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is essential for maintaining tissue homeostasis, and its disruption contributes to diseases such as fibrosis, cardiovascular disorders, and cancer. Effective mechanical coupling between the plasma membrane, the underlying filamentous actin (F-actin) cytoskeleton, and integrin-based adhesion complex

Recension av Mark Klambergs bok "Folkmord - Sverige och kampen om ett begrepp"

Mapping spatial variability of bioavailable strontium isotopes (87Sr/86Sr) is fundamental to robust analyses of prehistoric human and animal mobility and provenance based on strontium isotope data. A key challenge is how to construct and extrapolate a baseline for specific landscapes to enable meaningful correlation with high-resolution archaeological data. This study presents a regional high-reso

Background: The aim was to evaluate whether an artificial intelligence (AI)-based tool for the automated quantification of the total metabolic tumour volume (tMTV) in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) could support nuclear medicine specialists in lesion segmentation and thereby enhance inter-observer agreement. Methods: Forty-eight consecutive patients who underwent staging with [18F]FDG PET/CT

For victims of corporate harm, accessing justice in the global landscape is fraught with challenges and limitations – but also contestation and conflict. This paper focuses on these issues by directing attention to the National Contact Points (NCPs), a nonjudicial grievance mechanism in this landscape. It explores the puzzle of why complainants, who portray the NCP as a mechanism that is unlikely

Effective environmental policies for the tropics depend on accurate, representative scientific data. However, there is strong evidence from particular disciplines and regions that existing research is patchily distributed. Here, we show that poor representation of sampling and citation in some biomes and across key environmental gradients from all disciplines for the entire tropics may lead to fla

The Atlantic world looms large in discussions of how the modern world emerged, and what modernization was about; but there have been calls to engage with these topics from the perspective of ‘margins’. Covering large areas of Fennoscandia, the seventeenth-century Kingdom of Sweden represented a northern end of urban Europe, but also encompassed the mythical Lapland, homeland of the Sámi and of nat
